6.8/10

My stay was a mixed bag. The hotel was basic and certainly showed its age, but the location couldn't be beaten as it's right in front of Gare du Nord. The beds were clean, which was a plus, though the breakfast left much to be desired. It's a budget-friendly option if you're looking for somewhere central, but don't expect luxury.

Rooms

6.0

The room was quite small and outdated, with a bathroom that needed renovations. There was a persistent unpleasant odor, which was disappointing. It was clean though, which is a small relief.

Service

5.0

I found the staff to be a bit unfriendly and not very accommodating. They only provided towels upon request, which felt quite unwelcoming. Also, I had issues with the electricity in my room that took a while to resolve.

Location

9.0

The location is fantastic for anyone using the train as it's directly in front of Gare du Nord. It's also close to metro stations, making it easy to explore Paris.

Dining

5.0

I wouldn't recommend the breakfast, as it was quite poor in quality. I found better options at the bakery just downstairs. The continental breakfast offered very limited choices and nothing tasty.

Facilities

5.0

Basic facilities with a lack of proper maintenance. The lift was out of service, and the hallways were dimly lit, which made moving around quite difficult at times.

Facilities

The hotel felt quite old and in need of a good cleanup. Amenities like reliable Wi-Fi and clean towels should be basic standards, but they didn't really meet those expectations.

My stay at the Picardy Hotel-Gare Du Nord was a mixed bag. While the location right across from the Gare du Nord was super convenient, the overall cleanliness and service left a lot to be desired. The room was small and a bit worn down, which made me wonder if I was really getting what I paid for.

Rooms

The room I stayed in was disappointingly small and not very clean. The shower space was cramped, and the bed didn't feel comfortable at all. It just wasn't the cozy retreat I'd hoped for.

The location is definitely the highlight, right in front of the Gare du Nord and near several metro stations. It made getting around Paris super easy and that was a major plus.

Dining

I didn't really enjoy the breakfast options. It was pretty minimal, just some bread and butter, not at all like the pictures I saw online, which was kind of a letdown.

Facilities

The facilities could really use an upgrade. There were several issues with cleanliness and maintenance that stood out, making me question the overall standard of the hotel.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Picardy Hotel-Gare Du Nord. The location was awesome, just a short walk from the train station, but I found the cleanliness and maintenance lacking. My room had a funky smell, and there were several issues like missing bathroom tiles and dodgy Wi-Fi. Overall, it's cheap, so I guess you get what you pay for.

Rooms

The room was really small and had some serious cleanliness issues. There were stains on the bedding and a horrible smell lingering around. The bathroom lacked proper structure with some tiles missing, making it feel neglected. Plus, the heat didn't work properly, which was a bummer.

I absolutely loved the location since it's right in front of Gare du Nord and super close to metro stations. It made traveling around Paris so easy. There were also some decent bars and restaurants nearby, which added to the convenience.

Breakfast was not great. They were running low on essentials, and some foods were outdated. It felt like I had to search for an actual breakfast option, which was disappointing.

The hotel had basic facilities but definitely needs an upgrade. There were problems like broken fittings in the bathroom, and some services like housekeeping seemed haphazard. The whole place felt a bit neglected.

The location of Picardy Hotel-Gare Du Nord can't be beat, right outside the Gare du Nord station. But the hotel itself has serious flaws, from dirty and cold rooms to a messy breakfast area. I faced issues with noise and an overall lack of comfort during my stay, leading me to feel uneasy about my choice.

Rooms

5.0

The room I stayed in was very old and felt dirty. There were wires sticking out in the bathroom, which made me feel unsafe. Plus, it was way too cold, and the blankets looked filthy.

Service

5.0

I found the staff to be okay, but somewhat condescending. They even came into my room to clean while I was there, which felt intrusive.

Location

8.0

The hotel is perfectly located right in front of the Gare du Nord railway station, making it really convenient for transit. It's just a short walk to a few cafes, which I appreciated.

Dining

5.0

Honestly, breakfast was a letdown. The tables were messy from previous guests, and the croissants seemed stale. It really didn't make for a pleasant start to the day.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities were pretty lacking, with no air conditioning and outdated decor everywhere. I even noticed some construction mess in the hallways.
